Sunriver, Spring 2006

One day, some friends and I travelled to Sunriver, Oregon. We wanted to celebrate a few birthdays, but we wanted to do it in a fancy, expensive looking, rented house, far far from home, close to ski resorts, bike trails, tennis courts, and country clubs.

Not much to report here, so we will immediately segway into pictures with informative captions.

Maggie and I become entangled after a brisk mountain bike ride on dirt, rock, and even snow.

CB, Stat-man, K-ride, DAG, and Mike-the-drunk get the party started.

K-momma and IT are subjected to some extreme affection from DAG.

This vegetarian lasagna was a hit!

Yes, that is a Geek Squad shirt. Does it count as double fisting if you friend is siphoning off one of your longnecks?

Stat-man attempts to attain maximum positive beer flux. Make sure to use the right hand rule buddy!

What's that? I can't hear you because I'm busy trying to win the "40 challenge". What is this you ask? Well, also known as "Edward 40-hands", it is a simple game in which two 40-oz bottles of your favorite alcoholic beverage are duct-taped to your hands. The challenge is to finish before you:

a) urinate in your drawers

b) pass out drunk and perform a)

The 40 challenge is so easy for me, I decide to perform some "40 curls" to pass the time.

Nearly 3 hours after beginning, I complete the challenge by demonstrating the literal meaning of the term "bottoms up".

K-ride performed a toned down version of the challenge as they chose to go with a solo 40 instead of two. K-ride is a trooper though, as he suffered massive bleeding wounds when the duct tape was removed at the end of his challenge. Way to play through the pain honcho,..
